Step into a dim parlor in the French Quarter with Dr. Caspian Alexander for an hour-long séance that blurs history, ritual, and the unexplained. Expect intimate storytelling, guided ritual focus, and an experience that will leave you questioning what you encountered.
The parlor is smaller than you expect—a single room above a street that hums with late-night chatter. Candles gutter; their light throws slow, patient shadows across portraits whose eyes seem to track your movements. A hush settles as Dr. Caspian Alexander takes his place at the center table, and for the next hour the French Quarter stops being simply a set of balconies and wrought iron: it becomes an arena for questions about life, memory, and what comes after.

A single item with personal meaning helps focus the reading—keep it modest and meaningful.
The meeting space is small and sessions start promptly; early arrival lets you settle and avoid disrupting others.
Out of respect for privacy and atmosphere, leave cameras and phones put away unless the guide explicitly allows photos.
Indoor rooms can be significantly cooler than the Quarter’s humid streets—layers keep you comfortable throughout the hour.
New Orleans’ spiritual landscape blends Catholicism, West African traditions, Creole practices and 19th-century spiritualism; practitioners like Marie Laveau shaped the city’s occult reputation.
Respect private properties and cultural sites—avoid disturbing tombs or leaving offerings that can damage fragile materials; support licensed local guides who preserve historic spaces.
A token to place on the table can anchor the session and help guide the reading.
Indoor spaces may be cool—bring a layer for comfort.
